In order to achieve this goal, this vocation requires much preparation & continued enrichment.
Marriage Preparation: This essential step can take many forms, Our primary marriage preparation program is a multi-day, in-person program called Transformed in Love. During this program, you will spend time with your spouse-to-be, exploring topics such as strengthening your communication skills, managing expectations, building financial strategies, and most importantly, keeping Christ at the center of your marriage. Programs are offered for engaged couples twice a year. Each program costs $100 which includes all materials and meals. Details about the dates, times, and location of the program are available on the parish website, along with a registration form.

Marriage Enrichment: Even the best marriages need to be cared for. Our ministry offers “date nights” throughout the year to married couples – from newlyweds to those who have celebrated many years together. Using the program ‘Beloved’, the evening begins with a meal prepared especially for you. Afterwards, couples view a presentation and then engage in a discussion aimed at deepening their understanding of how to live your sacrament of Marriage in our Catholic faith. Details about these date nights (dates, times, and location) will be announced in the bulletin. Registration is required.
*The next date night is January 20, 2023 Schedule: 1/20, 2/17, 3/24, 4/14, 5/19, and 6/16 Registration is limited and required. Go to the Marriage Enrichment tab for details or click HERE.
